The South and Southern Capital.

A great deal of Northern capital is find
ing its way into the South, but the amount
Of it is not so large as the public have been
led to believs In nearly all the towns in
the Southern States which have had rapid
growth within the last few years the great
majority of the investors have been South
ern men, and the capital they have con-
trolled has been either their own or that of
companies or organizations composed of
Southerners
Mr. Samuel Noble, the chief owner of
Admission, Ala, said a few days ago that
it was surprising how many securities had
remained locked in strong boxes in the
olden Southern towns until the building
boom struck the new Southern towns
Many of these securities were held before
the war by the same families who held
them until a few years ago. Hundreds of
thousands of dollars worth of Central rail-
road stock, for instance, was placed upon
the market year ago, when it went long
way above par, by those who had owned it
for a quarter of a century or more.
According to Mr.. Noble these strong
boxes of families have furnished
Ju0 HlOSI Vi Iu6 IlOilSy 10 Dullu DllUlluR-
ham, Bessemer and other Southern towns
which have enjoyed such marvellous pros
perity within the last few years.
The South's industries are becoming more
and more diversified, and where this chang
ing condition of affairs is the most marked
there the indications of prosperity are
greatest. Even the farmers are begin
ming to appreciate the advantage there
is in diversified crops. Twenty years ago
there was no thought of making hay crop
anywhere in the cotton belt Excellent hay
is now made in the vicinity of this city aud
in Florida Doubtless the same is true with
respect to other parts of the cotton-growing
section; and no doubt hay pays larger
profit than cotton

HE HAD AN ITEM.
Why Some Men Do Not Get Their
Stories Into Newspapers.


From the 81. Louis Republican.
"Say. mister want you to do them fellows
up" said an excited looking young gentleman
who strobe into the Republican Office at an
early hour this morning

"These policemen, said he, who go around

Then he went on to narrate narrowing story

This being the case. force Of ten policemen
with sledge hammers pounded the door in with
ont even trying the bolt OF course they found
no one in and looked very sheepish over their
bad luck.
Now, win you put that in''' said he.
Certainly" he was answered. Just give
me your name?"
This he did promptly, and it was written out
in plain view.
Say, but l amt the Teller who runs that

Again prompt response with very nice
sounding name. which was also written out for
him.
''All right now, said the reporter. 1.-THE item

The fiery manner OF the young man had grad
ually undergone a change, as the two names
stared UP at him from the sheet Of white paper
ami after 1dgeting awhile as IL something was
wrong he leaned forward and said timidly, as if
afraid some one would hear him
Say, you amt goin' to put them names in,

''Yes, but that's my real name, - said he, with

We'll, but we can't do them up without au-

BY this time the young man was humid with
perspiration, and he said, pleadingly, as he rose
to go:
Just leave out that whole blamed item, now,

A Dead Albatross Brings News of a
Wreck to Australia.
From the London Telegraph.


The French Foreign Office has information
from the Governor of West Australia relative to
the wreck of French vessel ON Crozet Island.
Thenews of shipwreck reached Australia
in peculiar manner. A dead albatross
was found on the coast of Freemantle some
months ago with tin plate tied around his
neck, on which were inscribed the words written
In French: Thirteen shpwrecked persons have
taken refuge on Crozet Island, Aug. t. 1885,"
The Governor, to whom the bird was broupht
telegraphed Immediately to the Admiral at sgd
ney. IL is believed that the shipwrecked per
sons are the crew of the three masted vessel Ia
maris of Bordeaux, belonging to Bordes & Son
She left that port last December for Nouma
and has not since been heard of. Her crew
were thirteen in number.
The Crozet and Marion Islands are situated to
the southeast of the Cape of Good Hope in 4So
of longitude and acc of latitude They abound
with game and fish are plentiful on the coasts
so that the sailors will scarcely have much suf-
fering to undergo from hunger. The poor alba
tross had winged its fight over 1000 miles Of
ocean in order to deliver its message at Free
mantle.

Gone for Good.

The reward OF 100 offered for the recap
tnre Of John Walsh has not been claimed.
There is no probability that it ever will be.
John Walsh dbl not linger long around
Augusta after he escaped from the convict
camp near that city. Doubtless lie was
well provided with the necessary means for
making his escape to a safe locality.
John Walsh shot to death an inOlfensive
Old man, Mr.. Dawson, who was clerk of the
Marshall House, and soft-hearted jury sent
him to the penitentiary tor life, instead Of
inlicting upon him the full penalty of the
law
He was sent to the convict camp and
must have been permitted great deal of
freedom there. If he had been guarded
carefully the chances are that he would he
there yet
There is good reason for thinking that
Walsh expected to escape. Early in the
summer IL was reported in this city that he
had escaped. The Governor was asked il
the report were true, aud, on July 10, he re-
piled that it was not. On Aug. 10, however,
Walsh did escape, and notwithstanding the
paltry reward of 500, offered by the lessees,
in whose keeping he was, nothing has been
heard of him since by the prison authori-
ties
What is to be said Of convict system
that produces such results, Is il to be Won
dered At that citizens become Indifferent
about the prosecution of thieves and muir
deTersf Is it strange that when heinous
crime is committed the exasperated people
resort to lynch law!
An extraordinary effort was made to con-
vict Walsh. There was no question about
his guilt. The only question was whether
there was backbone enough in the commu-
nifty to convict a white man of murder
The Solicitor General did his duty so well
and so ably that he was commended on every
side, but he did not succeed in gefting the
kind of verdict that he sought The COM
munity rejoiced, however, that justice had
not been wholly defeated But there would
have been no rejoicing if it had
been known how great the chances for es-
cape from the convict camp were. The
camp proved to be only sort of resting
place on the way to freedom.
What has the State done to find this man
who was under life sentenced Nothing,
unless the reward of 800 offered by the
lessees is regarded as the act of the State
The man who startled and aroused this com
munity by his terrible and unprovoked
crime is free, and the time aud money spent
in convicting him were virtually wasted
Is it remarkable, therefore, that the people
of Georgia find fault with their convict sys-
tems Its abuses horrify them, and its
shortcomings excite their indignation

A Technical Point.

From the Cliic0qo Tribune.
II have called in. sir, said stranger to the
red-headed editor Of Missouri paper Ito tell
yon that your reporter. whose name l think is
Billus is a measly dog"
The editor came out from behind his desk
kicked the visitor out OF doors and across the
sidewalk, and went back to his work with the
remark that no man could talk about brother
of his in that style.
Mr.. Billus," said man who came in a few
minutes later. "have yon brother that does re-
porting for your paper 2"
Yes, sir, replied the editor.
well, sir, am sorry to say it, but my opinion
is that he's villain, ascoundrel, and coward
sneak"
You're right. sir, was the reply Il agree
with you perfectly. | kicked that other fellow

parentage Of the family"

Senator Cullom thinks the next Congress
viii take up the question of a government
telegraph system and that proper measure
will meet with general support. There is
no doubt that the recent telegraph consoli-
dation, giving the Western Union prac.
tically monopoly of the whole business,
will make the idea of a government service
in connection with the post office more
popular than ever, but it is hardly probable
that the people will consent to the inaug-
uration of such an enterprise while the evils
of the monopoly bear no heavier than they
do. The heat of our elections is too great
now, and were the places of many thousand
more government employees made depend
emit upon their results, they might become
SO hot as TO endanger good government and
peace Wait until the idea of nom
partisan civil service is generally accepted.

A little while ago the newspapers were
full of the details of the terrible atrocities
perpetrated by Apache Indians on white
settlers Now the story comes Of persecu-
ton of peaceful Indians by the whites, who
seize their cultivated lands and cattle with
out recompensing the owners. This is done
in spite of the efforts of the military to pro-
tect the Indians, and seemingly with the
concurrence Of the civil authorities This
course of conduct on the part Of the whites
may very well lead to another war if it was
not the real cause of former ones.

From the CHICAGO Herald.

From the CHICAGO Herald
"Have Won Faber 3 b." asked a seedy young
man in a Madison street store where artists
materials are sold
Eyes; single lead or box?"
'Let me try lead
The clerk produces the costliest movable black
lead that is manufactured, the visitor inserts 1t
in his pencil, screws it so that the lead is
clamped, and then writes as if to test the quail
~ OF the Faber.
What do You get for these by the box?"
Sixty cents"
How much per gross?"
Fourteen dollars and forty cents, with IS per
cent off"
Can you have them ready for me in an
hour?"
Certainly"
"Al right, I'll call for them"
He is out of hearing before the clerk remem-
bers that the movable lead which was inserted
in the pencil for trial went off with the seedy
young man. This is the newest trick.

Indian Summer.
From, the Century for Noyembsi

From the Century for November.
As frosty Age renews the early fire
Whose eager flame in hazy warmth appears
And brings again. across the shadowy years
The vanished dreams that kindle and inspire;
AS time repeats the hour of young desire
In smoother laughter and more tranquil tears
And childish pleasures mixed with needless
fears
Stir through the pulses of the withered sire.
So when November, sharp with frost and seet
And moaning winds about the rocky height,
Has reaped the shining forest to his hand,
The charm of Spring returns in Ineower heat,
To veil the leafiess hills with purple light
And brood in peace above the naked land
